If nsX.reconfigure() is used in a way that might affect other tests
within the same module, it's best to split up the tests which need the
reconfig to a separate module. This ensures the reconfigure() won't
interfere with test results in case the tests are executed separately,
or in a different order.
- changed named.conf.in to named.conf.j2 in all server directories that
don't currently need to use copy_setports() during the test.
- converted the tests that use ns5 to python, and replaced
named1.conf.in and named2.conf.in with a jinja2 template instead.
the only remaining server that still needs copy_setports() is ns4.
- removed ns4/named5.conf.in, and moved its functions to ns5 (which
is supposed to be for servers with broken trust-anchor configurations,
so it should have been there in the first place). converted the tests
that used that ns4 configuration to use ns5 with jinja instead.
- revised the remaining ns4 configurations (named[1-4].conf.in) to
minimize the differences between them. this will make it easier to
convert it into a jinja2 template later.
when sending a query to a forwarder for a name within a secure domain,
the first query is now sent with CD=0. when the forwarder itself
is validating, this will give it a chance to detect bogus data and
replace it with valid data before answering. this reduces our chances
of being stuck with data that can't be validated.
if the forwarder returns SERVFAIL to the initial query, the query
will be repeated with CD=1, to allow for the possibility that the
forwarder's validator is faulty or that the bogus answer is covered
by an NTA.
note: previously, CD=1 was only sent when the query name was in a
secure domain. today, validating servers have a trust anchor at the
root by default, so virtually all queries are in a secure domain.
therefore, the code has been simplified. as long as validation is
enabled, any forward query that receives a SERVFAIL response will be
retried with CD=1.
This commit converts the license handling to adhere to the REUSE
specification. It specifically:
1. Adds used licnses to LICENSES/ directory
2. Add "isc" template for adding the copyright boilerplate
3. Changes all source files to include copyright and SPDX license
header, this includes all the C sources, documentation, zone files,
configuration files. There are notes in the doc/dev/copyrights file
on how to add correct headers to the new files.
4. Handle the rest that can't be modified via .reuse/dep5 file. The
binary (or otherwise unmodifiable) files could have license places
next to them in <foo>.license file, but this would lead to cluttered
repository and most of the files handled in the .reuse/dep5 file are
system test files.
If named is configured to perform DNSSEC validation and also forwards
all queries ("forward only;") to validating resolvers, negative trust
anchors do not work properly because the CD bit is not set in queries
sent to the forwarders. As a result, instead of retrieving bogus DNSSEC
material and making validation decisions based on its configuration,
named is only receiving SERVFAIL responses to queries for bogus data.
Fix by ensuring the CD bit is always set in queries sent to forwarders
if the query name is covered by an NTA.
